Is she coming to NASCAR? Will she stay in the IRL? We promise to stay all over Danica Patrick until she makes her decision.

Freshly milk-mustached Danica Patrick talked about her modeling career this week, saying, “I’ve always seen, always noticed, always thought it was so cool and that maybe one day I’d get to do it.”

Translation: Week by week, NASCAR seems safer from “D-Day.”

Speaking of which, there is nothing new to report about her possibly making the jump to NASCAR. But hey, some butterflies time to emerge.

After all, did we ever expect this…

… would emerge from its IndyCar cocoon to become this?

On the track, Patrick currently is qualified seventh for Indy and sits on the left of row 4. Yes, between modeling shoots, interviews and angling for a NASCAR ride, Patrick has been known to drive a little.
